Xplore Platinum Partners Allegiance
Technology, Ingram Technologies play integral role in customization, deployment
of each public safety customer’s mobility solution

AUSTIN,
Texas - November 01, 2016 -
XploreTechnologies Corp. (NASDAQ: XPLR) today announced that the Reading Fire Department in
Pennsylvania and
CommunityVolunteer Fire Department in Harris County, Texas, have both chosen Xplore
rugged tablet PCs to modernize their in-vehicle data systems and more
effectively mobilize data-centric workflows across their fire and rescue
operations.

At the recommendation of Xplore Platinum Partner
Allegiance Technologies, the Reading Fire Department has equipped its entire
team with
Xplore F5m rugged tablet PCs, enabling first responders –
for the first time in years – to complete electronic patient care records
(ePCR) and other critical call-related actions in real time while in the field,
en-route to incidents, and back at the station.

In fact, the department has chosen to replace all
of its Panasonic Toughbooks – initially intended to be the in-vehicle platform
for ePCR – as well as its station-based desktops with the Xplore F5m mobile
PCs. This has created a single form factor computing system that crews can securely
access across Reading Fire Department’s entire jurisdiction without physical
limitations. And, unlike the bulky
laptops that were often left at the station or in the vehicle due to their high
failure rates, the new Xplore F5m tablet PCs have already proven their rugged
suitability and uncompromising computing capabilities amidst the heavy data
demands and harsh operating environments stemming from the agency’s high daily
call volume.

“The
F5m rugged tablet gives us anytime access to sensitive ePCR data with the right
combination of internal and external safeguards,” explained Sean Hart, Deputy
Chief, Reading Fire Department. “We don’t have to compromise on workflow
software capabilities or data security, and we don’t have to adjust our
processes to accommodate hardware limitations as before. The F5m easily adapted
to our operational environment.”

Community Volunteer Fire Department (CVFD) in Texas
has also chosen to standardize part of its mobile computing technology solution
on Xplore rugged tablets. CVFD recently selected the R12 rugged tablet and Secure
Mobile Dock in-vehicle system as its new Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) solution. The
combination department serving Southwest Harris and Northeast Fort Bend counties,
is currently transitioning from multi-component, end-of-life Motorola
workstations to the single R12 tablet form factor in the cabs of firetrucks and
ambulances. Though the integration, led by Xplore Platinum Partner Ingram
Technologies, is just more than halfway complete, the tablets have already led
to significant efficiency gains during dispatch and emergency response efforts.
The highly-responsive R12 tablet processes data much faster than the other MDT
computing options the department considered, and integrates with the Ethernet connectivity
needed to securely manage the medical team’s ambulance-based narcotics vault. In
addition, the easy “grab and go” design of Xplore’s in-vehicle mounting system allows
IT to easily remove the rugged tablet with one hand if needed for upgrades or
repairs.

As Andrew Hawthorn, Deputy Chief, Administrative
Affairs, CVFD boasted: “The serviceability of Xplore rugged tablets is
unmatched. When we had to send in our previous fixed terminal MDT for repairs
or replacement, we’d have to dismount, pack, and ship a 20-lb CPU. The much
lighter 2.95-lb Xplore R12 relieves those burdens and gives us the flexibility
to use the tablets outside the vehicles if we decide to introduce additional mobile
workflows using the PC platform in the future.”

Both the Xplore F5m and Xplore R12 are highly
ergonomic and ruggedized tablets built with the MIL-STD-810G, IP54,HazLoc
protection and unique feature specifications demanded by police, fire, and
emergency medical service (EMS) professionals. The Intel®-powered Windows®
tablet computers feature bright View Anywhere® outdoor-readable displays,
hot-swappable batteries and enough internal and external power to quickly move
through computation-intensive applications all day long. Users enjoy the flexibility of both pen and
touch-enabled data entry and uninterrupted 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and I/O
connectivity with the critical data and additional crews that aid in response
efforts.

As Mark Holleran, president and COO of Xplore,
commented: “Public safety agencies were among Xplore’s first customers 20 years
ago, so we’ve always had a unique understanding of the highly specialized
security, durability, and performance standards they mandate in every
operational environment. That’s why
we’re exclusively able to keep pace with their evolving communications
technology requirements, help them anticipate and prepare for increased data
dependencies, and take well-informed actions to align our product roadmap with
their current and future mobility demands. The traction we continue to gain
within the fire and EMS sectors is just more evidence that Xplore rugged
tablets are the only PCs capable of reliably protecting and serving emergency
personnel – and protecting their IT investments.”
